Any word on who else is playing with him? $35 is a bit steep for just Beck - IMO

Beck tickets have been really expensive as of late, but keep in mind you just arent paying Beck, you are paying the 5 or so puppeteers touring with him.

True....

I could be way off on this but... I was just at the beck site and I think Devendra Banhart was in one of the backgrounds?

This might be old news but its the first time I've been to his site in a while, and i hadn't heard anything about it.

Didn't someone say that Girl Talk was playing some shows with Beck? I thought I read that here. Maybe it was Pitchfork. I'm not sure.

Either way, I'll probably end up at the show here in Chicago. It's two days after my birthday.

I got floor tickets at the MSG Theater - I've never been there. Is the dance floor significantly better or worse than the seats?
